What was so bad about Talia death scene? I mean not saying it was good but what was so god awful about it. I mean it's bad but I didn't think twice about it while viewing it.

There wasn't anything really bad about the death scene at all, imo, but a lot seem to think it was hilarious or what have you, but I sure as hell didn't mind it. Talia could have very well only been able to move her head after that crash and could've been paralyzed neck down and that's why only her head was moving during that scene. Easily, plausible answer right there. But some prefer to just laugh at it I guess.

People are exaggerating. Like i said, ive seen this movie with many people and i havent heard a peep from them. It's just a domino effect, people read online and they hear its so bad then they see it and theyre expecting it so they go AAHHAHAH OMG ITS SO TRUE!! ITSSS SO HORRIBLE.

I never heard a peep in the cinema either. All 4 times i saw it in theaters.

We're just spoiled over the last 20 years in death scenes. The head tilting was always a big part of someone dying on the big screen. Talias death wasn't even that bad.

It was absolutely poorly acted, which if we take Marion's talents into consideration, could be a symptom of poor direction. I didn't see any incongruous editing. Basic shot, reverse shot, it needed nothing more.

Oh man, this again LOL. It's still hilarious. And to me Talia's death was horrible, sorry. This mocking is well deserved.

The animal ones are so funny.

I agree. An example of poorly edited/directed death scene in this series would be Gambol's in TDK and Foley's in TDKR.

God, Gambol's death makes me facepalm to this day. There is absolutely no cohesive sense of cinematic space within the stretch of time from the Joker knifing his flanks and bringing himself and his knife (what happened to the other one?) to Gambol's face.

Heath's acting only saves that scene on the first or even the second viewing. On the third viewing it started to bother crap out of me. What happened to his other knife? Plus, those knives had some sort of super power to be able to completely and utterly silence anybody who was stabbed by it. No visual or aural cues of struggle whatsoever.

I felt that (with what I assume) an instant death was too merciful for a monster like Bane. I wanted him to die a slow and painful death.
